How to cleanly change bamboo BASE URL context

[timothy schmidt]

I am planning on migrating a 6.7 bamboo server to a host which already has other Atlassian applications like JIRA and CONFLUENCE and BITBUCKET.

It looks like I may want to modify my BAMBOO instance to use at URL which includes the /bamboo context for access differentiation.

I tried to modify the 6.7 instance by use of the ADMIN GUI interface using

SYSTEM -> GENERAL CONFIGURATION

changing  Base URL

FROM:  http://10.xxx.xxx.40:8085

     TO:  http://10.xxx.xxx.40:8085/bamboo

But on restart  the path http://10.xxx.xxx.xx:8085/bamboo URL would not resolve

Is there something else that needs to be changed?

Also .... I noticed that the remote agent wrapper.conf still utilized the non "/bamboo" 

value for:

     wrapper.app.parameter.2=http://10.xxx.xxx.40:8085/agentServer

Is there way to properly change the URL and push all required changes?

If not, what manual changes must also be made?

Hi @timothy schmidt,

Steps are outlined for how to change the context path.

Thanks!

I was actually looking at this one before I left last night .... :-)

But I'm curious then whether or not the documentation referencing the GUI action

https://confluence.atlassian.com/bamboo/specifying-bamboo-s-url-289277242.html

is not accurate, or perhaps the solution to a different problem set?

Same problem set, this comes after you've changed the context path on the server.

Ah! .... I thought this actually would drive the change(s) - with a service restart of course ... my bad.

Thanks for clarifying this.
